flying a plane gift experience, wycombe air park,

My life has changed for the better since having the boys, I am so much more of a happier, more content person. Of course, life's frantic and busy and not everyday is smooth. In fact it's a rare if a day totally is. But being a Mum has brought so much to my life and my boys are my biggest motivation. Saying that, I am a massive believer in having time to recharge from time to time. After all you can't pour from an empty cup can you? Motherhood is about giving A LOT of the time and as rewarding as being a Mum is, it's naturally sometimes draining when you are constantly giving your all all of the time.

We're extremely lucky in that my in-laws often offer to have the boys over to their house. It's amazing because it means that the boys have a great bond with their Grandparents and it's also great because it gives Adam and I time to catch up on things that we need to do, like work or things in the house. Last weekend though, Adam and I took the opportunity to spend some time on us, as on Sunday we celebrated six years of being married and sixteen years of being together (coming this October).

For Father's Day this year the boys had got Adam a Buyagift voucher for a three course meal with a bottle of wine at our favourite restaurant - Prezzo and also a sixty minute flying experience. Adam's always wanted to have the opportunity to fly a plane and so it was the perfect, different sort of gift and he was chuffed.
